You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 263 Whose Fist is Harder? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The detention cell was quiet.

Several people stared at Ji Yuan, waiting to see how he would respond.

The scene suddenly froze. Yang Jinwen was clearly giving him a warning, and it was also a test of his obedience.

Ji Yuan's face turned ashen, then he gave a bitter smile and nodded, saying, "I will definitely cooperate with Captain Yang in the investigation; it is my duty."

"That's good." Yang Jinwen looked away and ignored him.

Ji Yuan coughed twice: "Then I won't bother Captain Yang any longer."

Yang Jinwen remained silent, and he could only sullenly step out of the detention room.

After leaving, Ji Yuan clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.

There was a potted plant in the hallway, and he kicked it suddenly.

But the flowerpot was very sturdy and full of soil. Not only did it not break when I kicked it, my foot hurt terribly.

Fu Mingyuan, who was standing at the door, glanced at his back and shrugged.

"The outcast is suppressing the local bully; this is going to be interesting," Fu Mingyuan muttered.

Unexpectedly, Yang Jinwen came out and called out to Ji Yuan's retreating figure, "Section Chief Ji, don't go yet. The statement hasn't been taken. Please wait in the lobby for a while."

Ji Yuan paused, clearly suppressing his anger, then turned around and smiled, "Alright."

In the detention room, Ji Xiaoqiang looked at Yang Jinwen's refined and polite appearance and couldn't help but swallow.

My cousin Ji Yuan has connections in both the legal and illegal worlds in Dannan County. When has he ever been subjected to such a beating?
Ji Xiaoqiang's last shred of hope vanished in an instant.

Yang Jinwen asked calmly, "Ji Xiaoqiang, who else can help you? Name them?"

Ji Xiaoqiang forced a smile: "Captain Yang, you're joking..."

"I almost forgot, you also have an uncle who is the general manager of Danan Coal Mine? Section Chief Ji's father? Right?"

No, that's not true.

"Then let me ask you, can you cooperate with us now?"

Ji Xiaoqiang nodded hurriedly: "Yes, definitely!"

Yang Jinwen nodded and looked at the dumbfounded Lü Weiwei.

"Please review Ji Xiaoqiang's statement again to ensure it is true and valid. If there are any issues with lying, we will seek verification from others."

Whether Ji Xiaoqiang actually killed Yu Jing on the night of May 28th depends on how well he behaves.

After swallowing hard, Lü Weiwei smoothed her hair and replied with a blush, "Okay...okay."

"Thank you."

At this moment, Fu Mingyuan called over two police officers from the local police station and said, "Go and take a statement from Section Chief Ji. We'll see if we settle the matter of him assaulting someone privately or if we should seek compensation. We'll proceed according to procedure."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yang Jinwen: "Captain Yang, is everything alright?"

Yang Jinwen nodded: "It's fine as long as Captain Fu makes the decision."

That evening, Ji Xiaoqiang was interrogated for several hours, obediently answering all the questions, and was then taken to the detention center.

The criminal investigation team has finished examining the crime scene and is waiting for a meeting to discuss the case.

Yang Jinwen and Maozi followed Fu Mingyuan back to the county bureau, where they met Zhou Changyuan in the deputy director's office.

Zhou Changyuan was a well-known figure in Dannan County, the kind of person who hated evil as if it were his enemy.

Besides that, he was only a little over 1.5 meters tall, and was called "Shorty Zhou" by people in the underworld.

But his aura was very imposing; even Fu Mingyuan, who was nearly 1.8 meters tall, had to bow his head in front of him.

The municipal bureau and the city government held several meetings. Yang Jinwen was an ordinary police officer at the time and did not know Zhou Changyuan.

But Zhou Changyuan knew him; such a dazzling criminal investigation hero, Zhou Changyuan couldn't possibly not notice him.

"Jinwen, I've wanted to get to know you for a long time."

Zhou Changyuan held his hand. Before they met, Fu Mingyuan had already told him about what happened today in private.

After Yang Jinwen re-examined the 528 murder case, he found suspicious points, or perhaps he was dealing with Ji Yuan from the Mining Bureau's Security Department.

This suited Zhou Changyuan's taste perfectly, especially Yang Jinwen's tough style, which Zhou Changyuan was very satisfied with.

After all, he was a demobilized soldier, his hands were stained with blood, and he liked tough guys.

"Director Zhou, you flatter me. You are a true hero."

"I wouldn't call myself a hero. We live in a time of peace, and the criminals we're dealing with now are the ones we're dealing with."

Yang Jinwen flattered, "That's a hero too. I also served as a conscript for three years, but I didn't have the chance to go to the battlefield."

Zhou Changyuan raised an eyebrow, becoming even more enthusiastic: "I knew you were different from ordinary people, judging by your energy and spirit. And this comrade..."

The cat standing to the side quickly introduced itself: "Director Zhou, my name is Jiang Mao."

"Comrade Jiang Mao, hello."

"Hello, Director Zhou."

Cat wanted to bend down, but the other person was too short, and he didn't dare to straighten his back, lest he be accused of disrespecting him.

After they sat down, Zhou Changyuan asked, "Jinwen, Mingyuan told me about the results of your investigation today. What's your opinion on the 528 case?"

Yang Jinwen pondered for a moment and replied, "Yang Jianhui is most likely not the murderer."

"Oh? Could it be that Ji Xiaoqiang killed him?"

"Not really." Yang Jinwen smiled, understanding that the other party was testing him. "If Ji Xiaoqiang had killed someone, he wouldn't have left the body unattended."

Zhou Changyuan nodded: "Jinwen, could you help us investigate this case?"

"I will follow the instructions of the Municipal Bureau."

"Okay, I'll call Director Wen right away."

Zhou Changyuan slapped his knee, walked to his desk, and dialed Wen Mo's office number.

After the call connected, the two talked for a few minutes before Zhou Changyuan took the receiver away and said, "Jinwen, Director Wen is looking for you."

Yang Jinwen stood up and took the phone receiver. "Hello? Director Wen?"

"I was wondering why I hadn't seen you today. Did you think our municipal bureau didn't have any cases for you to handle? What were you doing in Dannan?"

“I know the suspect in the 528 case in Danan County. I just came to check on things, but there are many suspicious points in this case…”

"Yang Jinwen, let me tell you, if you can't handle a case, then don't take it!"
You need to understand that you'll be transferred to the provincial capital eventually. You need to make your resume look good, and don't have a bunch of unsolved cases on your hands. Otherwise, it'll be difficult to get you promoted, understand?

"I know."

Are you confident about this case?

Yang Jinwen honestly replied, "I have some ideas, but I can't say I'm confident about them yet."

After a moment of contemplation on the phone, Wen Mo said, "Dannan County is the largest coal mining area in our province, with tens of thousands of miners. There are many bloodsuckers in the coal mines, and it's easy to cause trouble if you're not careful."

"In that case, I'll send the Major Crimes Unit to support you; more people will make things easier."

"Thank you, Director Wen."

"Don't thank me. Spend more time with Wen Ling'er. You've only rested for a few days, and you still don't know how to stop and relax."

"it is good."

After Wen Mo finished rambling on, Yang Jinwen hung up the phone.

Zhou Changyuan smiled and said, "Director Wen values ​​you highly."

Yang Jinwen smiled politely but didn't respond, because she didn't know what he meant.

"I just asked, and the forensic team is still checking the investigation results. Let's have another meeting tomorrow morning to discuss case 528. What do you think?"

"I can do it."

"Alright." Zhou Changyuan looked at Fu Mingyuan: "Arrange accommodations for Jinwen and Comrade Jiang Mao. Don't mistreat your own people."

“I understand, Director Zhou.”

After having dinner at the county bureau canteen, Yang Jinwen and Maozi went to stay at the county bureau guesthouse across the street.

The two were assigned to a room, and as soon as they entered, there was a knock on the door.

After opening the door, the cat saw an unfamiliar woman outside and asked, "Who are you?"

“I…I’m looking for Yang Jinwen.”

"Excuse me, who are you?"

“I am his aunt.”

Cat observed her suspiciously, then turned around and looked at Yang Jinwen, who had just come out of the shower.

Yang Jinwen dried his hair with a towel, walked to the foot of the bed, and saw Yanzi's mother standing timidly at the door.

"Xiao Wen!"

Swallow's mother staggered into the house, carrying a tattered bag on her back.

Her face was haggard, her hair was disheveled, and her eyes were bloodshot.

“Xiaowen, I thought you wouldn’t come. I even called your grandfather, and he said you definitely wouldn’t abandon us.”

They wouldn't let me see your uncle. I stayed here for three whole days, and even went to the police station and the criminal investigation team. They told me you were staying here, so I rushed over.

Xiaowen, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have treated Yanzi that way.

Please, please help us, or our family will be ruined…

As she cried, Swallow's mother knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

Maozi quickly pulled her up: "Hey, don't kneel, we're the police, we don't allow it."

Yang Jinwen moved to the side to avoid standing in front of her.

"Xiaowen, please save your uncle. I beg you. Your aunt knows she was wrong. I promise I will treat Yanzi well from now on. She is my daughter. I didn't really want to abuse her."

I didn't want it to be like this either. I'm petty, but Yanzi is my daughter, and I will treat her well!

Yang Jinwen closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again and said, "Yang Jianhui will definitely go to jail, I can't help you. But I can't answer how the court will sentence him right now."

"You're no use staying here. Go back and take good care of Yanzi. I'll let you know if I hear anything."

Swallow's mother wiped away her tears and replied, "As long as he isn't sentenced to death, I'll help him protect this family."

Yang Jinwen squinted at her: "Can you?"

"Yes, I definitely can!"

"Let's go back."

Yanzi's mother stood up: "Xiaowen, thank you."

"Thank you, Swallow."

"I know, I know."

As she answered, she walked out of the room, glancing back at the door.

After closing the door, Maozi asked, "Captain Yang, he's quite pitiful."

Yang Jinwen threw the towel on the chair and replied, "There's always a reason why someone is pitiful."

"You can't say that. I had a pretty pitiful childhood too."

"Then you are hateful too."

Maozi wanted to stand up for himself, but seeing Yang Jinwen's expression, he couldn't bring himself to do so. He changed the subject, saying, "Captain Yang, aren't you afraid that Section Chief Ji will retaliate against us?"

Yang Jinwen sat in his chair, sighed, and said, "If you want to investigate a case in Dannan County, you can't get around the Mining Bureau. If you don't get rid of this stumbling block today, it will come looking for trouble tomorrow."

"So if you do that, he won't dare to cause trouble?"

"If he has the guts, I'll play with him and see whose fist is harder!"
